The Lightning Thief Strikes Milton Keynes This September! ⚡

Demigods, assemble! The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical brings Olympian energy to Milton Keynes Theatre this September – don’t miss the quest!
Joanne McClaren

Based on the much-loved book series that’s sold over 180 million copies worldwide, Percy Jackson’s adventures have already been brought to life on the big screen and in Disney+’s hit TV adaptation. The musical first premiered off-Broadway in 2014 and, following two US tours and a Broadway run, has been thrilling London audiences since November 2024. It continues at The Other Palace until 31 August 2025.

When New York teenager Percy Jackson discovers he's the half-blood son of Poseidon, his world flips upside down. With newfound powers he can’t control, a prophecy he didn’t ask for, and a host of monsters chasing him down, Percy must navigate a world of gods and legends to save the day.

"A spark of pure stage magic. A production that transports you to another world." The Times

"Catchy songs, inventive choreography and a delightfully offbeat energy highlight the humour and heart of Rick Riordan’s mythical quest." The Guardian

Demigods, your moment has arrived!
This autumn, The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is hitting the road for a high-voltage UK tour. The smash-hit stage adaptation of Rick Riordan’s bestselling novel arrives at

Milton Keynes Theatre from Wednesday 3rd to Sunday 7th September.

Producer Paul Taylor-Mills said:
“We’re so excited to share Percy Jackson’s incredible journey with even more audiences across the UK after such a fantastic run in London. The show is bursting with energy, comedy, and heart—whether you're a lifelong fan or meeting Percy for the first time, this is one quest you won’t forget.”

Packed with humour, heart, and heroic adventure, The Lightning Thief is a high-octane musical journey that asks: what does it really mean to be a hero?

With a book by Joe Tracz (Be More Chill), music and lyrics by Rob Rokicki (Monstersongs), and dynamic direction and choreography by Lizzi Gee (Groundhog Day), this bold new production promises to be an electrifying experience.
Casting to be announced soon.
